In the BMW GS 95023 standard, developed by BMW, a multinational vehicle manufacturer company headquartered in Germany, the electrical properties and electrical safety of high-voltage components in motor vehicles are explained, requirements are defined and test methods are presented.
Companies producing electric or hybrid vehicles have high requirements for the electrical insulation level of both the vehicle as a whole and its high-voltage components. This creates great difficulties for suppliers in setting up and operating high-voltage test stations and in qualifying high-voltage components. Precise values are required to compensate for the effects of aging and wear, requiring special measurement technology that ensures precise measurement results throughout the entire testing process. Advanced laboratories offer the most suitable solutions for such applications with insulation monitoring devices.
Today, electric or hybrid vehicles are becoming more and more common on the roads. Because of this, on the one hand, high requirements such as the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, and on the other hand, increasing competition, manufacturers focus on the continuous improvement of the electrical equipment of vehicles. However, the focus is not just on optimizing the main components of the vehicle, but on regularly adapting and improving its individual high-voltage components.
In the past, on-board networks with 12 Volt, 24 Volt or 48 Volt direct current in the automotive industry were not too critical for all parties involved. However, high-voltage on-board networks in electric vehicles impose completely different conditions on materials in terms of manufacturing processes and testing procedures. Depending on the vehicle type and engine power, on-board voltages up to 800 Volts direct current are used, which places very high demands on high-voltage components. In addition, high-voltage components should be available for a service life of 15 years, mostly maintenance-free.
Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors, our organization also provides testing services to determine the safety of high-voltage components in motor vehicles, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment, within the scope of the BMW GS 95023 standard.
